Fuzbaby, the company basics
Commitments
We make the mundane astonishingly beautiful. We believe the simple cloth diaper can be a canvas for Diaper Art. We believe cloth diapers are just one step toward natural living and environmental sustainability.
As a company, we are deeply committed to Quality, Materials, Beauty, Education, and Professionalism in the manufacture and retail of cloth diapers. We practice Smallering, allowing the business to grow only as big as we want it to grow. That is the deliberate practice of limited growth. All Fuzbaby products are made in USA by fair labor.
Our values are reflected in our website through:
- Fuzbaby Products made from time-tested patterns with highest quality, natural materials and workmanship.
- Dazzling Gallery documenting our history.
- Resources to help our customers Make Your Own Everything and learn more about sustainable living.
- Easy ordering and full information for our customers through direct contact, clear policies, company info, answers to frequently asked questions, secure ordering and payments.
- Community involvement through professional memberships and community organizing. Lori Taylor, founder of Fuzbaby, is also a founder of Real Diaper Association, a national nonprofit organization for cloth diaper education and advocacy, and Real Diaper Industry Association, a cloth diaper industry trade association.

Background
1999 - Gather small business information and begin planning Fuzbaby. Sell first diapers locally.
2000 - Actively selling locally.
Auction diapers and diaper covers online.
Best-selling items are Refuz diapers and covers, made from reclaimed T-shirts and sweaters.
2001 - Develop Almost-in-One set that includes a modified wool cover with a snap-in contour diaper.

Watermelon inspired diapers and covers start what becomes the Diaper Garden.
2003 - Grow new Diaper Garden crop each month. After this, the crops have been seasonal and occasional as time permits.

2005 - Introduce Elemental Diapers with (long overdue) website revision. Cross country moves throws us into chaos!

2007 - Continued Random Eclipse, including an Elemental Air collaboration with good friend Laura of El Bee Baby.
2008 - Polar bears. Can't get the bears off my mind. Also, we give in to kind and gentle pressure and send out a lot of custom Fuzbaby diapers and covers. Year of water -- frozen, melting, elemental.
2009 - Our tenth anniversary year! We aren't quite over the shock that it has been so long. We have celebrations planned.
